For Blood and Empire is the fifth studio album by American punk
band Anti-Flag, released in 2006. In the same year, the song “The
Press Corpse” entered the Hot Modern Rock Tracks Chart. Anti-
Flag are known for their politically charged songs, often criticising
right wing policies and conservative ideologies. For Blood and
Empire was released during the reign of George W. Bush, so
naturally the album boils over with vehement anti-Bush attacks
and confrontational lyrics that overwhelmingly target the war
in Iraq. Featuring classic Anti-Flag songs “The Press Corpse”,
“This is the End (For You My Friend)” & “Depleted Uranium Is
A War Crime (feat. Tom Morello)” and “1 Trillion Dollar$”. The
LP set includes an 8-page booklet, which contains short essays
for all but two songs, providing more in-depth perspective on the
inspirations for the song subjects.

This release is a 15th anniversary limited edition of 1500
individually numbered copies on white marbled vinyl. The album
and booklet are housed in a deluxe heavyweight gatefold-sleeve
with leather laminate finish.
